Haha ... Yes Ralph, I bitch about calls, not the people who bitch about them ...
Just like bitching about referees who think a lateral which is clearly behind the line of scrimmage is somehow a forward pass.
Many fumbles have been ruled incomplete passes and it's gets frustrating.

Re: Packers fatigue
Robert, I get a feeling former Packer Sharpe gets in this year. The older players will keep waiting.

Re: SB Champions That Should Have Repeated
Had Smith caught the ball and tied the score, maybe the Steelers try to run more with the backs but Bradshaw was a big play gambler and it paid off going to Swann, who could contort his body from ballet lessons to draw a devastating pass interference penalty. The Cowboys still could have stopped the...

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL
Like a former Raider coach once said "when is a fumble not a fumble?" ... Get over it Ralph, the officials were wrong!

Re: Aught Oh
Ebbets.com has a great throwback jersey of Jim Otto from the Raiders 1964 season but it's pricey. Still would be cool to have with plain white jersey and silver 00 with black outlining.
"Wasnt that Otto"? -- line from the best film comedy of the 1980s ... Repo Man !!

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL
The Tuck Rule game ... damn the ruling and interpretation of the "incomplete pass" ... Brady clearly brought the ball down from a passing motion making him a RUNNER who fumbled the ball into the Raiders hands. No way that was an intended pass.

Re: 1984 49ers = Overrated
Losing Thomas to trade wouldn't have helped the Bills or Jim Kelly. Davis could run but wasn't the valuable receiver that Thomas was. The passing attack would have suffered without Thomas, who had his best ever running game against KC to put Buffalo in its 4th straight SB. Had Thomas been traded, th...

Re: Looking At the Teams That Attempted to Threepeat
The Chargers did beat the Steelers in 1980--they had beaten them 35-7 the year before-- before Pittsburgh was eliminated from the playoff race due to Oilers and Patriot wins, and SD needed the game to win the division. Yes, the defense had a tough season but Bradshaw still led the team to a winning ...

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL
The Oilers changing their name to the Titans. I get Bud Adams trying to create a new image and identity for the fans in Nashville and TN, but ... a) You don't get rid of a name with a history, including the first two AFL champions and b) You damn sure don't adapt another AFL team name from a team th...
